Tasting

Light straw yellow with slight greenish reflections, fine perlage, persistent. Intensive fragrance of juicy-ripe pineapples, mango, flowering elder, sea-buckthorn and cranberries. Fine notes of Muscat. Delicious fruit sweetness, spicy acidity, creamy carbonic acid, seductive yet refreshing. Reinvents itself with its sparkling citrus note. Take care – dangerous fruit drug! – there will be never enough of it!

As first producer in Austria we use the new glass twister closure. The glass twister (made of organic certified material) is an innovation “made in Germany” and offers besides of perfect technical features an up-to-now unknown symbiosis of comfortable handling and stylish look. In addition: sparkling wine tax does not apply.

Pairing

As entree with its favourite partner lemon sorbet served in a XL-Caipirina-glas with crushed ice – watching the beach volleyball finals from the front row. Pairing short pastry tart with red currant jam (in Austria called “rogue”). Wonderful as apéro as well as together with aromatic Asian dishes, served at a brunch, with fruit salads or fruit desserts, pieces of mango with chocolate fondant, basil or lemon sorbets, fried elder flowers, as “pick-me-up” and “eye-opener” or as “companion” to three already emptied Muscato bottles, balm after a great red wine tasting, and much more.
